As far as I'm concerned Effing Kerry served honorably in Vietnam. None of this would have been relevant if he hadn't tried to make his claim to be a war hero the cornerstone of his campaign.

The man really isn't very smart.

JF'nK was in Vietnam. He was in action, if not exactly combat. That simple set of facts alone would have stood him in good stead with the majority of Americans. He was there. However, while he was there he lied, connived, and cheated his way around the system.

I believe he would like us to focus on what he did while in VietNam, no matter how sleazy and dishonest it was, precisely because it is murky, and now very hard to document, especially with him hiding the documents. Our stress should be on what he did afterwards, which is what he would really like to hide.

Also, the question of his discharge, which would settle this once and for all, is never going to be answered. The question for us is, "Can we get him out of the race for the Senate in 08, or failing that, beat him in a fair fight at the polls?"

I’m sure you’re aware, no one holds his ‘service’ in Vietnam, short tho’ it was, against him. 99% of those of us who find him disgusting are those he accused of being War Criminals in April, 1971. Some of us were harmed by that one Senate session more than others for 30+ years. But most of us have another 30years for payback. Those of us who don’t stick to our guns are either 1) not doing our jobs; or 2) dead.
